Verizon - Change plan and upgrade phone help!?

Here's my situation. I'm now eligible for a New-Every-Two upgrade worth $100. So I click "upgrade" and it takes me to a page where the bottom few phones say that I will need to change my calling plan in order to upgrade to those phones (Upgrading FROM LG VX8600 w/ America's Choice 450 to hopefully an LG Dare). So in order for me to get a Dare, I must change my plan to the new Nationwide calling plan (450 minutes) which basically comes out to the EXACT same plan as I had before. Anyway, while I was in the process of switching my plan, I noticed it said that some promotions from my old plan will not carry over. Does this mean that I lose my $100 credit? And also, if I switch plans and do a 2 year contract and then upgrade my phone, will it let me do that or will there be a glitch from doing 2 "2 years contracts) one after the other or will the second one over ride the first? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

    I just recently did the same thing you are trying to do. Your phone will be cheaper if you sign up for a new two year contract. The cost of the phone with the new contract is only $80 with a mail in rebate. If you use the New Every Two upgrade it will probably cost you more since the retail value of the dare is around $400. And yes when you get the lg dare you will need to switch to the nationwide plan. It is the same plan as your old one but it is just a different name for it. They will mail you the phone and when you activate the phone it will guide you through to activate your new calling plan (2year contract).

    Hey lulu... You need to change your plan if you want the Dare, but you can upgrade and change your plan at the same time, and you won't loose you credit. You can do it online, or goto a store. Going to a store could be easier do you can have some one else take care of it and make sure your don't make a mistake... Though they will try to sell you lots of data add ons like internet, text messaging, navigator, v-cast. If you don't want anny additional charges a month, say no to these... they have data quotas to make, so it's their job to push them.
